We would like to see soma citizen of
Plum, good in figures, make a calcula-
ton on what it costs the people of that
township, each year, to haul their hogs,
corn and other farm products to Kirwin

with certain parties in Kirwin started

bought the Central Branch, and that
the Railrord officers had gone over the
road TO examine their purchase. The
Rock-Island has not bought that road
and could not buy it if they wished to
